Should Your Startup Offer Virtual Internships?
- jckay 16y agoI have multiple students, with tons of passion, from great schools wanting to work at my company - but i feel like it would be difficult without being able to sit next to the kid and really teach them / explain what we need!
- kovar 16y agoI've explored various "virtual internships" but was told by every formal internship program that they required a physical office space with full time, on site, supervision.
- jckay 16y agoReally?? Have you ever worked with companies like youtern? Internmatch? There are some cool options out there for virtual interns but just unclear if there is less value for both parties?
- mbabbitt 16y agoSome colleges do insist on a "brick and mortar" office environment for college credit. However, many -- such as Columbia and Champlain -- are moving toward acceptance of virtual internships as bona fide experiential education opportunity. Check out YouTern.com... you'll find many available internships there.
